Homebrew Storage and Fermentation

Curtain down

This is a blackout/thermal curtain repurposed since its matching panel got damaged. I hemmed it up and in to match the dimensions of the wire shelving. Being a thermal/blackout curtain, this will help minimize light exposure to my fermenters and help maintain constant temperatures. I have a small apartment, so this is the only viable place to keep my fermenters and store my gear. This room is too small to be a usable bedroom, so it's become storage and an 'office' anyways. Though my temperature there has been pretty stable, presumably I could put some heating pads on the bottom and the curtains would help hold that temp a little better if I ever needed to. Conveniently there's an outlet right there.
I also have a netbotz 200 (I work for APC and support these) that I use to monitor temperature on the rack, and have a switched outlet on it I can program to turn on and off based on temperature thresholds.

Velcro straps with stitched button holes.

After lots of cursing and jamming our sewing machine on scrap fabric trying to figured out how the automatic button hole maker works, I got it down and made button holes along the top edge to reinforce where the velcro straps were going to go. They aren't perfect, but it's functional at least.
